How to Use It
The 3.6V rechargeable battery (B4)
may have discharged during
shipping and distribution. Recharge
it as shown in project 3 and others.
Sometimes parts will be mounted on a
pivot, so they can be adjusted for the
best angle to the wind or sun.
Assemble the pivot as shown here:
Whenever the motor (M4) is used, it
will have the wind fan or the water
wheel placed on top; simply push the
fan onto the shaft. To remove it, push
up on it with a screwdriver or your
thumbs, being careful not to break it.
Assembling the Liquid Power Source: If the copper and zinc electrodes get
corroded through use, use sandpaper,
steel wool, or a scraper to remove the
corrosion and improve performance.
Setting the time on the clock (T2):
• Press the left button to select what to

• Press the left button until the time is
showing, then press the right button
once to start.
• The colon (“:”) will be flashing when
the clock is running.
• Press the right button to display the
date.
Insert post into pivot top,
snapping into place.
